Default Americian's Creed 95 years old

Did you know that we had an American's Creed?

Yes we do

Quote:
I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.



Written by William Tyler Page in 1917. He was the Clerk of the House of Representatives. He started out as a House page in 1881.

Accepted by the United States House of Representatives on April 3, 1918.
